Lecture: Guatemalan Mayan Weaving

Through a selection of pieces from his collection, Raymond Senuk provides descriptions of Mayan textiles that date prior to 1940 as well as current-day Guatemalan textiles; weaving methods and patterns; and how these costumes were used in rituals and daily life.

This program is part of the museum's weekly Textiles at Twelve series, which explores the textile arts and global cultures through films, lectures, gallery talks, and more. Free, no reservations required.
